The ipad amazes me. Not only is it brutally slow, but it 
crashes... a lot (the ipad 1 anyway, i've never seen the newer 
ones). Yet Apple has a reputation for quality. Maybe it is 
because their crashes just reset the device rather than giving an 
error message so people don't know whom to blame! idk.

Another slow, unstable device? The playstation 3. The games 
themselves run ok, but turning it on and switching apps on that 
home screen is just atrocious.
